Patrick Ventures
Patrick O’Meara established Patrick Ventures in 2018 after building a private portfolio of commercial property investments. The Scottsdale-based single-family office manages capital generated through decades of acquisitions, financings, and advisory mandates in real estate. The firm's formation consolidated O’Meara's activities under a unified family office structure, overseen by O’Meara and partners Nick Martinez and Kayla Sladwick. Patrick Ventures deploys flexible capital across four verticals: real estate, private equity, venture, and credit. Its real estate strategy focuses on senior-living development, with operating partner Acanthus Development executing a pipeline of projects bearing saint names across the Phoenix metropolitan area, including St. Benedict Senior Living in Ahwatukee and St. Raphael Senior Living in Glendale. The firm makes direct co-investments in operating businesses where it believes it can add value and also commits to external private equity partnerships for collaborative fund exposure. The portfolio additionally reaches into renewable-energy ventures and a rainforest-preservation project. Team buildout is grounded in Acanthus Senior Living, where partners Nick Martinez and Kayla Sladwick serve as managing directors alongside their Patrick Ventures roles. Spouse Tiffany O’Meara appears in charitable filings as a co-donor. The family office participates in the Family Office Club as a frequent speaker and maintains an ICSC membership from O’Meara’s real estate career. Philanthropic giving flows through the Phoenix Children’s Hospital Foundation. The firm does not publicly disclose AUM or total deployment figures. Patrick Ventures differs from typical real-estate family offices by operating a direct-development affiliate, Acanthus, rather than acting solely as an LP in third-party projects. This hybrid structure allows the firm to originate, develop, and operate its own pipeline of senior-living assets while still allocating to external GPs and direct company investments. Governance rests with the founder and a tight partner group, with no publicly announced succession architecture.

Frequently asked questions
How does Patrick Ventures originate its real estate deals?
The firm originates most real estate transactions through its affiliated operating company, Acanthus Development, and its CEO Bart Shea. This allows Patrick Ventures to act as both developer and capital provider on senior-living projects throughout the Phoenix metropolitan area, rather than sourcing purely as a passive LP in third-party sponsor deals.
Does Patrick Ventures invest exclusively in real estate?
No. While real estate — particularly senior-living development — is a central vertical, the firm's own website lists direct co-investments, private equity partnerships with external GPs, venture exposure, and credit as additional allocation categories. It also lists a rainforest-preservation project and renewable-energy ventures in its portfolio.
Is Patrick Ventures a family office or a venture firm?
Patrick Ventures is structured as a single-family office for the O’Meara family. It does not manage outside capital. Its venture and private equity activities represent the family office's own direct investments, often made in partnership with GPs or operating companies, rather than a fund-of-funds or seed-stage franchise.
Who runs Patrick Ventures day to day?
Founder Patrick O’Meara oversees the family office. Partners Nick Martinez and Kayla Sladwick are actively involved in investment and operational decisions, and both serve as managing directors of Acanthus Senior Living, the firm's senior-housing development affiliate.
Does the firm disclose its assets under management?
Patrick Ventures does not publicly disclose a figure for assets under management or total capital deployed. No regulatory filing or press report supplies an independently verifiable number.
